The N.Y. Tap Project

What if every glass of water you drank quenched someone else's thirst?

What if every glass of water you drank quenched someone else's thirst?

Clean and plentiful drinking water is an everyday privilege millions take for granted. Yet the lack of clean and accessible drinking water is one of the most urgent health crises facing less privileged children and families today.

Which is why on World Water Day, March 22, 2007, in conjunction with the U.S. Fund for UNICEF, hundreds of restaurants will ask you to donate $1 for the tap water you normally enjoy for free. It starts in New York and will spread to cities across the world. It's not much to ask, but it could mean so much to others.
